Answer 1

The correct option is B Rs 10500, Rs 13500, Rs 16500

A, B, C invest in the ratio 35000 : 45000 : 55000 i.e., 7:9:11
$\therefore$ A's share in the profit $=\frac{7}{27}\times 40500$
$=7\times 1500=Rs10500$
B's share in the profit $=9\times 1500=Rs13500$
C's share in the profit $=11\times 1500=Rs16500.$
